Garden Activities

Pruning fruit trees - but staying inside while the white stuff comes down!

Taking a break over the holidays!

Raking up leaves around the trees - no use letting them go to waste on the grass!

Planting a few extra garlic cloves in pots. They make nice gifts!

What’s Happenin’ in the Kitchen?

Kale, kale, and more kale! Combined with garlic, of course! With chicken, cauliflower, over pasta, in stir-fries…you name it. Kale rules!

Homemade bone-broth soup with ham, beans, carrots, onions, kale - a chilly day - perfect for hot soup!

More dried apples & gingerbread w/molasses & fresh chopped ginger - yum!

Pumpkin custard with whipped raw cream…yum! Thank you Dungeness Valley Creamery!

Homegrown potato-leek soup w/shallots :P I Love soup weather!

MORE dog biscuits! "Woof!"

Gourmet Concoctions

(aka – “Value-Added Products”)

We are very excited about the possibility of being able to offer some specialty products from our back acre, including powdered garlic, specialty horseradish sauces, mustards, and possibly a variety of dehydrated backpacking foods. We are currently making sure we can meet all USDA standards for processing and packaging. Stay tuned!

Short update: Oh my gosh – I made some killer – and I do mean killer - horseradish mustard! I really have to bottle this fire!

Newer update:  Are you smitten by vampires and werewolves at Twilight in Forks out to La Push and beyond the reaches of sanity? We have the antidote: Anti-Vampire Dust. Don’t be caught without.
